Six members of Celtic’s double winning youth side have been named in the Scotland u-20 squad to take part in the Den Haag Youth Tournament at the end of the month.
Coach Ricky Sbragia has been a regular at the Celtic u-19 matches and had no hesitation in calling in defenders Marcus Fraser and Joe Chalmers, midfielders Dylan McGeough, John Herron and Callum McGregor with recent first team scorer Tony Watt also included.
Scotland open the tournament against Manchester City on May 25 then face hosts Den Haag and Brazilian side Cruziero the following day.
Group B consists of Mexico, Kazakhstan, Club Brugge and Borussia Monchengladbach with the final standings in each group determining the final play-off places.
Chalmers, Fraser, Herron and McGregor have been Scotland regulars since their schoolboy days with Watt making his u-19 debut earlier this season. McGeough made his Scotland u-21 debut last month against Italy.
